Ex-offenders face difficulties in finding and keeping jobs with a promising future. Often young, inexperienced, and living in a world of illusions, most ex-offenders lack knowledge about opportunities appropriate for their red flag backgrounds. This is the first book to outline jobs for ex-offenders. It profiles 101 opportunities (job outlook, nature of work, qualifications, earnings, contacts) that are open to ex-offenders. It also identifies various jobs closed to ex-offenders.

Good alternatives to trade jobs,

This review is from: Best Jobs for Ex-Offenders: 101 Opportunities to Jump-Start Your New Life (Paperback)
I work with lots of ex-offenders to prepare them for finding employment. Most think the only jobs they can get with a criminal record are jobs in construction and the related trades. Although this resource is heavy on construction and trade related jobs, it also offers some options ex-offenders may not have known they had including jobs in computers, hosptiality and sales. Along with job descriptions, it offers salary and training requirements and a job growth outlook. I recommend all of Ron Krannich's books for ex-offenders, but I think this is an especially useful resource if you want options other than hard labor.
